THE Trsssury Department is now at

THE Treasury Department. Is ho" ~
work constructing, OF great expense, an
additional vault for the storage OF one num-
drea million silver dollars, the present
vsplis being already so crowded with such
dollars that they can hold no more OF them.
The people will not keep silver dollars, but
send them back to the Treasury as rapidly
"a possibe. But still the coinage of silver
dollars goes OF at the rate of two million
month. As they cannot be forced into CIR
culation, and are held as security for siiVer
certificates, why the uncoined bullion cou'a
not bs used for that purpose, and the great
expense of coinage and storage be saved Is
hard to comprehend. No matter how wrong
tina President may be, and is, on the que5,
ton of civil service reform, that he is right
on the silver question, the wisest and most
disinterested men in the country have not
the slightest doubt.
